It's Monday which means that it's time for #mealplanningMonday again! This week, I'm sharing our meal plan over here rather than over on Meal Planning Made Easy because it's a bit different to my normal plan - it's a batch cooking meal plan.What I mean when I say it's a batch cooking meal plan, I basically mean that I've planned a week's worth of meals based on the fact that I want to do some batch cooking this week so everything I've planned can (and will) be batch cooked so I'll be making one to eat on the day with at least one family-sized portion to go in the … [Read more...]
Sunday Snapshot: The one with the Special Starbucks Drink….
Have you ever looked through your camera roll on your phone and found a photo that's just too good not to share? It might be because it makes you smile as you remember a happy memory or because you're proud of how good the photo turned out.Sunday Snapshot is my new-ish regular-ish feature where I plan to share a photo I love with you...Over the past few years, I've had to listen to my Starbucks obsessed kids tell me how unfair it is that Starbucks in the US do way better drinks that Starbucks here in the UK.

I've added … [Read more...]

Every week I share five frugal things that I've done during that week just to show you that the small things you do all add up to a great frugal lifestyle where you can learn to live a fabulously frugal life.Before I start though, as always feel that I should say that being frugal to me is about getting the best value for our money - it's not about doing without for us or about not having nice things.

The Five most important money lessons to teach kids….
Today I'm going to share with you the five most important money lessons to teach kids - something which has been on my mind a lot lately with the launch of the Family Budgeting Fink cards.As parents, we all want to make sure our children are as prepared as possible for the real world that they're going to be living in before too long! For me, with a 17-year-old in college and a 14-year-old fast approaching the end of his time at school, it's really something I'm trying to focus on. Budgeting Skills are vital. This is a huge one for me and I've written about it in detail before but … [Read more...]
